Well,...
Everyone is entitled to their opinions. Here is mine though, although I can say for sure it is based on first hand knowledge, not speculative. I thought to add this for credibility. Now, the truth about Gregg, from having seen him around the gym, knew/know people who were friendly with him at Strong & Shapely Gym, E. Rutherford, N.J., It really wasn't a big deal after a while. He is good friends with the owner Bob. (good guy IMO)Also, I always got along with Bob, and for that matter everyone else. Gregg would come in sometimes and talk to Bob. He seemed like a real bulky guy, short,... usually very quiet, always super tanned with looked like DyoDerm or Pro-Tan on, and reserved/ quiet from everyone else. I would never have thought it was the same guy from what he writes on the net. Aside from that,...The story I was told by people who knew him well, was that (and had seen pics taken after) he had to remove an implant in one of his arms because of infection or something to that degree... He had a few procedures and had some sort of "surgical implants" (like something that of one would do w/ calves, ect...) put into his arms to expand the overall size. It looks though as obviously he went way overboard, and I was told he had a few of each put in each side over oneanother. Again, his arms were the result of surgery, not Synthol. Now,... I can't say 100% if the man ever did use a bottle of Synthol in his life. How would I know what the guy does behind closed doors, but I do know what his arms consist of, what made them what they are, and resulting from for sure. Also,... just thinking about it,...but there is no way in my opinion somebody can get their arms that big on just flacid oil buildup. Even without me knowing the truth of the story and Gregg and his arms. If someone did shoot over the usual doses, maybe way over, at best it would peak it more than usual,....and then possibly you would have some sort of injury because of the fluid buildup very soon. I would think... His/their arms would most likely get infected very fast, and on top of that, the injections alone would have the guy crippled/ immobile as well. For Gregg's size, someone would have to be doin' crazy shots like (speculative) 30 cc's or more in each arm a week, and probably 10 or more every 2 days just just for maitinience. That is really really unrealistic to me. Even for Gregg and obviously how he likes to portray his arms and attain their exaggerated size.
I had been told recently that he had to get some of the implant(s) removed gain, and from all the stress they put on his veins, tissue, and entire arm, that he is looking at some possible serious, lasting medical problems in the future.
I again have no reason to dislike the guy personally, he has never done me wrong, but I don't wish any bad medical problems on anyone. I hope he make
a recovery and comes out. Hopefully maybe he will just take everything out, but again, most of the dammage is already done. What people do to themselves, ultimately is up to them no matter what you warn/tell them. I wish him good luck. It sucks when anyone is hurt regardless of how it was done.
Hope i was informative,...on the subj.
Thanks,
